Say your prayers and hop under the covers tonight
Hours will pass before your tired eyes meet the light
Say your prayers and sit down to the table tonight
Say your prayers and everything"ill be alright
Outside looking in
Nothing comes that easy
He said
Houses turn to sand
Taken by the sea
Rivers turn to land
Still I catch their water in my hands
Still I catch their water in my hands
Happy birthday may the world lay a gift at your feet
A record collection or maybe even world peace
"Cause the US Army is coming to collect you tonight
Eighteen and able to pick up a gun and fight
Outside looking in
Nothing comes that easy
He said
Houses turn to sand
Taken by the sea
Rivers turn to land
Still I catch their water in my hands
Still I catch their water in my hands
Hours will pass before your tired eyes meet the light
Say your prayers and sit down to the table tonight
Say your prayers and everything"ill be alright
Outside looking in
Nothing comes that easy
